PVYBL Brings Community Together With Inaugural Opening Day Celebration
Dear Parents and Volunteers,
THANK YOU for making PVYBL's Inaugural Opening Day a tremendous success! It was truly amazing and humbling to see the completely full Peninsula High School parking lot and jam-packed Field House Gym. The joy on the faces of the children was priceless. None of it would have been possible without your support.
Let's make it a fun season for the kids!

What makes PVYBL different?
Endorsements
We’re thrilled to have the endorsement of youth sports leaders from around Palos Verdes, including 20 youth basketball coaches who have decided it’s time for a change. They’re supporting PVYBL, and we encourage you to ask them why.
Incentives
PVYBL has the right incentive structure. We are a 501(c)3 nonprofit, which means our only incentive is to provide the best youth basketball experience we can at the lowest cost to you. All league proceeds go toward helping your family have a great basketball experience.
Responsiveness
PVYBL is committed to responsive and respectful customer service for you and your family. Have a question? Send us an email and we’ll respond right away -- always within 24 hours, usually sooner.
Openness and Transparency
As a registered not-for-profit, we are governed by a volunteer board of directors. Interested in helping out or learning more? We’re looking for additional board members and volunteers. Come join us and help make PVYBL the best youth hoops experience around.
We’re thrilled that we’ve revolutionized PV youth hoops before playing a single game. But we’ve got plans for even bigger changes ahead. We’re moving forward with true commitment, and we understand what you’ve known all along: some quick cutting-and-pasting can’t paper over years of indifference.
So join PVYBL now! It’s all about the kids, and it’s game on!
